2409 Twins
Luo Lin was a little obsessed with cleanliness. He usually washed his own clothes and did not let his assistant do it.
Xinyue nodded. “Yes, let’s hurry up. The stain is fresh. There should be a chance to save it.”
Zheng Lida’s assistant kept saying, “Ms. Qiao, I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. When I went to deliver Brother Lida his coffee, I didn’t pay attention and accidentally spilled it. I’m really sorry for turning your clothes into this mess…”
This assistant was just a young lady. Her eyes were red as she held back her tears. She looked pitiful.
Qiao Weiyang’s heart ached for her clothes, but she didn’t blame the assistant. She said, “It’s okay. It’s not your fault. Don’t cry.”
She handed her a tissue.
Regardless of whether she was being hypocritical or genuine in front of the cameras, the assistant was quite grateful. Otherwise, she really could not afford to compensate.
Qiao Weiyang looked at Zheng Lida, who also apologized. “Ms. Qiao, let me apologize on behalf of my assistant. We were too careless and wasted your good intentions.”
“Since it’s an accident, let’s just forget about it. Fortunately, I still have the prepared materials here. Coincidentally, the show is going to be filmed tomorrow. I’ll rush out a new set for you.”
When Zheng Lida heard Qiao Weiyang’s words, he was obviously a little flustered. “Um, Ms. Qiao, we’ve already ruined your hard work, and we’re very embarrassed because of it. How can we trouble you like this? We can’t trouble you anymore. I think we can settle it ourselves. Ms. Qiao, we appreciate your kindness.”
“Alright, then you guys can make your own arrangements.” Qiao Weiyang had already seen through his thoughts clearly. She reached out and took the clothes that she had personally made.
Zheng Lida apologized again and left.
Luo Lin said generously, “Sister Weiyang, I’ll wash the clothes. Even if he doesn’t wear them, they might be useful in the future.”
“Thank you.” Qiao Weiyang could tell that Luo Lin had a similar personality as Xinyue. Although he had some understanding of the evilness of the human heart in this world, he still maintained his optimism and kindness. He was willing to treat others with sincerity.
Such an actor was really rare.
Qiao Weiyang believed that in time, Luo Lin would not be someone who lived under others forever.
Returning to the spot where there were no cameras, Tao Huan said in a low voice, “Sister Weiyang, I just saw Zheng Lida’s manager come in with the new set of clothes. It seems like they were prepared long ago. I think that Zheng Lida did it on purpose. He probably dislikes the clothes you made.”
“I could already tell,” Qiao Weiyang said. “It’s good that he doesn’t like my clothes. He’s not worthy of ruining my things.”
“He’s too much. If he didn’t want your clothes, he could just say it. Since he chose you back then, why is he wasting your efforts now?”
“The important thing now isn’t about this. Let’s not talk about this for the time being. Let him be.”
Tao Huan stopped talking.
All the clothes had been tried on, and only Xinyue’s had to be changed slightly.
She held the clothes and stood in front of Qiao Weiyang. She stuck out her tongue in embarrassment. “I secretly ate hotpot last night. I think my waist grew a little bigger. I’m sorry.”
“I like hotpot too,” Qiao Weiyang said as she changed it for her. “Raise your hands.”
Xinyue obediently raised her hands. “Doesn’t your manager care? Anyway, my manager is quite good at managing me. That’s why I eat it secretly. However, she has many people on her hands, so she often can’t manage me.”
“Yes, my manager doesn’t care.”
“Oh, it’s my cousin, isn’t it? He can’t control you anymore, huh?”
Qiao Weiyang smiled and said, “Probably.”
“But I’m also thinking that I can’t continue eating like this in the future. Do you know? Luo Lin has quit eating sugar and salt. He doesn’t touch anything high in fat or calories. Yesterday, I saw him eating noodles outside but he drained the oil using oil-absorbing paper. Oh my god, he’s so self-disciplined! I’m ashamed of myself. Compared to him, I’m still far from success.”
“Luo Lin is not bad. If there’s a good opportunity, he’ll definitely be able to garner attention.” Qiao Weiyang had always had a good impression of him.
“That’s what I said. The day before yesterday, the production team was treating us to a barbecue. He came back and ran for an hour, did an hour of strength training, and then stretched for almost 20 minutes. When I went to look for him, I was stunned. Guess what, he was learning his lines after working out! Why is the entertainment industry so unfair? Such a disciplined and hardworking person hasn’t even had a chance to stand out.”
Qiao Weiyang said as she stitched, “Opportunities are for hardworking people. He entered the industry a little late, but if he continues to work hard like this, one day, he’ll be able to appear in the spotlight.”
“I think so too. That’s why I’ve decided to follow his lead. I must work hard, discipline myself, and film well. No matter what job I do, I have to do it to the best of my ability!”
Seeing how confident she was, Qiao Weiyang gently pinched her cheek. “I believe in you. You can definitely do it.”
“Yes!” Xinyue clenched her fists.
After changing her clothes, Xinyue looked at herself in the mirror. She was so beautiful that she was infatuated with her own appearance. “Wow, it looks like an ordinary dress, but I look so good in it. It fits me so well. I even feel that I’m a young lady in the Republic of China.”
Qiao Weiyang reached out and put a hat made of rags on her head.
At a glance, Xinyue really looked like a young lady from that era. She was wearing a white dress and beautiful stockings while carrying a small handbag made by Qiao Weiyang. She also donned a floral sun hat. She looked like she was from that time and looked good.
Looking left and right, she realized something. “Ah, I think there’s a golden thread inlaid on my dress. It’s a little shiny under the light, so the fabric looks very textured. It’s different from what I usually see.”
“That’s right. Because we don’t have enough money to buy good fabric, I had no choice but to buy ordinary fabric and embroider gold thread inside. The clothes will shine under the light and feel more textured as well. The stronger the light, the stronger the texture, but it won’t be too abrupt. This is best I can think of when the material, price, and time are limited.”
“Sister Weiyang, you’re really amazing! No wonder my brother can’t bear to let go of that set of clothes you made. He wears it all the time. I heard from Grandma that he doesn’t let anyone touch it.”
“Go, change your clothes and go to rehearsal,” Qiao Weiyang said.
